Consciousness was a mistake and suicide is the only way out of suffering

>consciousness was a mistake
>the species explodes after its emergence

seems like a success

Does primitive urges make the pleasure any less substantial?
Does it matter from where it originates?
In the end, all you do it pointless, why should that deter you?

a lot of people dont know where it originates so they get trapped into believing that books and philosophy will change their life(look at this entire board)

in the end of the day, you are either born goodlooking and have everything handed to you so you indulge in primitive desire or just kill yourself(or in a lot of people on this boards cases, 30 year old, unemployed with plato in their lap, deluded and sad, while struggling to compensate with reading useless philosophy books)

Don't worry about not getting into Harvard, son. You're street smart, so I'm sure you'll succeed wherever you end up, even if you do have to go to a state college :-)

How very spooky of you.
What is everything, to you? Did you know that you can acquire "everything" if you willed it
If you're a man, what does it matter if you're good looking or not. The worth of a man is, thankfully, deemed on much more than that.
Why should one compensate for being unemployed?
Why would reading Philosophy be useless if you deem it worthy?

You sound very bitter to me, user. Tell me, where did life touch you?

>You sound very bitter to me, user. Tell me, where did life touch you?

you shouldve said that you are from r/books my dude

Alright, user. You have a nice day now

>The worth of a man is, thankfully, deemed on much more than that.

Convince me

I don't wanna marijuana

books - opium for the high inhibited uggos

at least when you get high you do it fast and its pleasurable

when you read you just try as hard to forget about your miserable life and close the eyes to your true pathetic self while telling yourself that after that one sentence you'll acquire more "knowledge"

fit=squats and deadlifts
lit=books

you here put consciousness on a pedestal, what if consciousness is simply a byproduct of massive amounts of data needed to be processed?

>consciousness was a mistake and suicide is the only way out of suffering

>philosophy and literature are classic examples of coping mechanisms masquerade by "intellectualism".. whatever that is lmao

if that is 100% true then what does that mean?

Then just go for it. Nobody wants you, nobody needs you. The world will be better off without you.

This post looks like it was written by someone who just finished a wikihow on baiting and wanted to try things out.
You've got your run of the mill bait in the form of a controversial statement, but then you spice it up with some easily hatable stylistic choices- no capitalization, bad punctuation, the use of 'lmao' - and then to top it off you just throw an unrelated reddit symbol in.

stop trying

These "discourse" threads always make me cringe.

If life is pointless, you can't attribute different values to "intellectual" activities when compared to basking in your beauty - and that's even implying that your assumption about life being pointless is correct.

In all meanings of the word, consciousness is really all we have. There is no alternative. And to those assuming the "consciousness is a byproduct of data-processing" theory, are you assuming we only exist to process data? In what world would that make any sense?

>If life is pointless, you can't attribute different values to "intellectual" activities when compared to basking in your beauty

except yes you can

They are both valueless; explain to me then, how one has more value than the other.

In each of my hands there is absolutely nothing, but the nothing in my right hand is worth more than that of my left?

And that's why I'm living my life ironically you dolt.

...

my post was literally the opostte of a fedora tip you fucking moron

lmao

value is subjective, operational, and functional

you assign value and/or it is functionally bestowed

I can hear my parents fucking upstairs and I'm sort of aroused

have fun going insane, I've tried the absurd life for a good two years. I cultivated mental illness in the process. My advice, read Kierkegaard, go back to religion, no matter how irrational of a decision that may seem to you.

>And to those assuming the "consciousness is a byproduct of data-processing" theory, are you assuming we only exist to process data?
No, only that we developed consciosness/mental calculators to process data.

we have no idea why we or anything exists, the answer to the fundamental "why something instead of nothing?" cant really be answered by science
